Introduction
Commodities and Consumption
This chapter reviews the importance of commodities and consumption to archaeologies of the modern industrialized world. After centuries of New World exploration saw exotic luxuries transformed into everyday commodities, the Industrial Revolution delivered a new array of domestic goods to the emerging middle classes in the Old World. The practice of household provisioning changed for good as humble town markets were dwarfed by palaces of consumpti…
Fairer Data through Digital Recording
Critical data and metadata must be captured or created in the field, or shortly thereafter, to avoid loss. For the past 10 years, the Field Acquired Information Management Systems (FAIMS) project has developed and operated a customisable field data capture platform. Over time, we built features and approaches that incorporated the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) principles into born-digital datasets created during fieldwo…

There is a long history of value theorization across the social sciences, but archaeological considerations of value remain uncommon and focused on prestige goods. In this paper, I review alternative conceptions of value through the lens of the…

Creating eresearch Tools For Archaeologists
In this article, the Federated Archaeological Information Management Systems (FAIMS) project presents its stocktaking activities and software development towards the creation of a comprehensive digital infrastructure for archaeologists. A National eResearch Collaboration Tools and Resources (NeCTAR)-funded initiative, the FAIMS project aims to develop tools to facilitate the creation, sharing, reuse and dissemination of high-quality digital datas…
An Archaeology of Institutional Confinement
The archaeological assemblage from the Hyde Park Barracks is one of the largest, most comprehensive and best preserved collections of artefacts from any 19th-century institution in the world. Concealed for up to 160 years in the cavities between floorboards and ceilings, the assemblage is a unique archaeological record of institutional confinement, especially of women. The underfloor assemblage dates to the period 1848 to 1886, during which a fem…
